Balls in the air!

We have been busy transitioning from overnight camp to family camp to back-to-school all while squeezing in two precious birthday parties and as mama gears up to start a new law office (way more on that later). You could say that we have a balls in the air, figuratively and literally. I am in party craft mode once again and this time it is for me! Here is a hint of what we are working on:

Thanks for the wishes, Amy! I am making two ball wreaths for a set of french doors that lead from the outdoor courts to the room where I am having the party. I am also making some topiaries, bunting and centerpieces. I lucked out at the end of the last indoor season and got a ton of used balls to "play" with:)! I bit the bullet and hired an inexpensive photographer to come out and take pictures. Hopefully I will have good pictures of how it all turns out. I always work so hard on these things and then have no proof!!!

About Me

Hi, I am S. Long ago I planned to study social work, get a law degree, and marry a fellow professional when I graduated. We were supposed to effortlessly have two awesome careers, save the world, and a make family. I did most of that--I have a bachelors and masters in social work, married my law school sweetheart, worked for a decade as a children's advocacy attorney, and we do have two precious girls!! To my surprise, my career is mostly a SAHM and most days all I try to "save" is my own sanity! For two decades I have been a near professional volunteer in addition to my actual work. I briefly tried to be an "event stylist." I am currently using this blog to help me figure out my next big plan.
